    I was on the Eisenhower CVN69 in 1989 when we went through the outer and mid bands of the Hurricane Hugo. It was unbelievable! The bow of the ship would go under water. My birthing was at the most forward port hole near the cat sling catch ramp. Then the bow reached the top of its movement, you felt like a roller coaster. I finally became sick as a dog and went to the Middle of the ship and worked in the CIC as much as possible. The ride was a lot better in that area.

I think about the typhoon admiral Halsey’s fleet strayed into during WW2. I believe several ships were lost and in a couple of instances all hands were lost.

      You can find engines with 14 cylinders with over 100,000 horse power.
      Those mentioned are all in-line engines, ships with less engine room space like ferries do have V-type engines with many more cylinders.

To bring your wife along is not so easy anymore, due to all the security it is made difficult. My wife had to have certain certificates, like fire fighting, survival craft and first aid and a seaman-book, health certificate according the flag the ship was carrying. You have to pay the air ticket yourself, you need a travel insurance and an insurance on board, which is not cheap. In the end my company also forced me to take off my wife, in that video it was our last voyage after my wife was with me on board for 30 years on many ships and shipyards as you can see in my videos.

    I don't see why ship designers cannot include a stablisation system consisting of a pair of "wings" on the hull that functions like aeroplane ailerons. This can be easily done and can even be retrofitted. This will reduce rolling and reduce the risk of shifting loads, thus improving survivability and handling in heavy seas. One pair each at the bow and stern can even reduce pitching.

    • @Wolfgang227
      @Wolfgang227  3 роки тому +2

      Those stabilisers do exist, they are built into the ship side and can be moved out with hydraulic pistons, in port they have to be pulled in.

In older times my father used to record the movies onto VHS tapes and mailed it to me, later when mp3, mp4, flv, etc. came out, some friends recorded it onto hard discs.

      Thanks for your comment. There is nothing to fear. Fear about what? To die? We are eternal spiritual beings, this body is only a temporary domicile. After transition back into the spirit realm, from where we all have come from, we can choose (if not tied up**) what to do next, try another human experiment, because it was so much fun, or there are many other things to do. Anyway during sleep you also roam around in the spirit world.
      ** If we die and did not forgive all beings who did bad things to us, we get tied up and have to be born again together with those beings, usually in another roll, the oppressor will be the victim and vice versa. Being aware of this, it makes no sense to die with hate or revenge, because we would harm ourselves and have to be together with those beings again until we learn our lesson.

    • @Wolfgang227
      @Wolfgang227  3 роки тому +1

      This is an old ship, there are no sprinklers, engine room has to be manned all the time. We do electric welding, gas welding, fire cutting, grinding and all sort of hot steel work but not only in the engine workshop, also all over the whole vessel with certain safety precautions of course. We even enter fuel tanks and repair cracks by electric welding if necessary, with certain safety procedure of course.
      By the way, a ships engine room is a dangerous place, there are all sorts of chemicals, paint, different gases like oxygen, CO2, Acetylen, freon, fuel under high-pressure up to 1000 bar and hot up to 120 degree celsius, steam pipes, steam boilers, everywhere rotating devices up to 10000 rpm like centrifuges for cleaning the heated up bunker fuel, high voltage, and what have it.
      To survive in such an environment you have to know what you are doing.
